Yes they are. I had to remove the Radeon HD 6950 to get them installed, but it made no difference.
In that case I assume the test is actually using ATI/AMD card for hardware assisted transcoding/decoding. I think there is an option to disable that somewhere in the drivers. If you can't find it, I'll look it up and get back to you.
I too have trouble finishing the first test, it stops at 2/7 Storage Gaming then says it's fininshing the results to be sent to futurmark and my final score is 0. Any idea?
My spec is Intel Q6600@3ghz, MSI Neo2-FIR Slot-775 mobo, Windows 7 64-bit and the latest AMD Radeon 6xxx 12.4 graphic drivers.

Hard to say. Do you have enough free space on OS drive? (not that much.. 1 GB I think is enough)?
Beyond that, there will be a patch to PCMark 7 in the near future and it will include more detailed logging of failures - if the problem persists after patch, the logs might then show more...

Assuming all the drivers are up to date, it would seem that there is something wrong with the hardware-assisted video transcoding/playback with your card. At the moment I have no solution beyond the fact that a patch for PCMark 7 is coming soon that will allow controlling of the hardware assisted transcoding (on/off) for situations where the hardware-assisted playback fails to work correctly.
